I just wanted to know what moving large files to the end of the drive during whole drive defrag does. I saw the option under the Defrag tab in the options window and I'm not sure what it does. Thanks!

I quote from the Piriform documentation site...
Here's more.

Hard drives are fastest at the beginning of the drive, and slowest at the end of the drive. That means that you'll get the best performance from your PC if your most-used files are placed at the beginning of the drive.
Defraggler enables you to move large files to the end of the drive. Typically these large files are video or storage files, so they're not used very often. By moving them to the end of the drive, you're freeing up 'fast space' for files you use far more often.
